BOSTON -- Maple Leafs forward William Nylander will miss Game 2 of Toronto's first-round Stanley Cup playoff series against the Bruins on Monday with an undisclosed injury.

He also sat out Saturday's Game 1 -- a 5-1 Toronto loss -- because of the same ailment. While Toronto hasn't revealed what Nylander is dealing with, it's reported to have flared up for the winger sometime after the Leafs' regular-season finale Wednesday.

Toronto remained hopeful Nylander could return Monday, though. He participated in the team's full morning skate at TD Garden prior to Game 2 -- albeit without taking line rushes or joining special teams drills -- and coach Sheldon Keefe said afterward, "We'll see how he feels here the rest of the day and make a decision from there.
